Not being able to write your own code to deploy into a production environment won't get you very far as a software developer. Merely my $0.02.

- jrockway 17y agoBut unless you're a web host or something, you are not being paid to write web servers. In the limited amount of time you have to solve your business's actual problem, do you want to learn the ins and outs of HTTP, or do you want to learn the ins and outs of the actual problem you are trying to solve?

- alttab 17y agoThis is an extreme example of my previous point: when is it a good choice to learn vs a complete waste of time. I don't think anyone would write a web server unless they were in that business. But if they were, they wouldn't simply pick up Apache just because they can. There are always at least two correct sides to every argument.
